Relaxed and Rejuvenated

by Kristi on May 2, 2010 · 0 comments


What a busy few weeks and no posts! Oops! I have some great excuses though… I have a ton to gab about but sadly it will all have to wait until my brain is working correctly.  We got in at 2:30 am THIS morning, slept for a few hours, saw our cute children, went to [...]

Working 9 to 5

by Kristi on April 12, 2010 · 12 comments


A new decade coming up (I’m 30 next week, whoa!) and a new change of pace. As this post is going live, I’ll be walking into a beautiful office in South Orange County to start a new full time job.  That’s right. FULL TIME       J      O       B [...]

Kid Friendly Easter Tips

by Kristi on March 26, 2010 · 2 comments


I was reading in Family Fun magazine about an easy way to color eggs for small children. Just pop an egg into a wire whisk, so it’s nice and protected, and let the kids stick the whisk into the cup for easy egg coloring.  I thought that was ingenious, especially for toddlers! Who has good [...]

Orange County Disasters on Twitter

by Kristi on March 15, 2010 · 0 comments


I have a lot of friends who just don’t ‘get’ the Twitter thing. “Isn’t Facebook the same?” “I don’t understand Twitter.” I love both. I keep Facebook for my more immediate friends and sharing kiddo pictures and video while Twitter is more of my daily news addiction from far and wide.  Facebook is slowly becoming [...]

Running my First 8k

by Kristi on March 13, 2010 · 5 comments


A few weeks ago I ran my first 8k in Brea and it was amazing! These races are so empowering with so many people next to you running the same race, helpers every few blocks cheering you on, even a band was playing half way through! Jenn was my running partner and I couldn’t have [...]

Brea 8k

by Kristi on February 25, 2010 · 4 comments


I have somehow been talked into running (walking? limping?) the Brea 8k this Sunday!! About 5 miles, I think?  They have all these yummah restaurants sponsoring the run and will have tons of food at the end. Will that be a sufficient carrot stick to get me to the end? Luckily my walking partner is [...]

Deliciously Tired

by Kristi on February 13, 2010 · 1 comment


I’ve been trying to walk more and some of my friends actually… jog. I know, who does that, right? But this morning Griffin got up at god’awful o’clock and Sam shortly later and since there is only so much TV they can watch without me feeling lime a horrible Mother, I tossed them in the [...]

Fun Morning

by Kristi on January 27, 2010 · 1 comment


It’s the little things… My wonderful Mama had us over for dinner last night and took BOTH kids overnight and through the morning.  So I woke up this morning and turned on the news! I adore watching the news, ABC all the way. I’m so sad Diane Sawyer is not on anymore though.  I will [...]

It’s a New Year

by Kristi on January 1, 2010 · 0 comments


Ahhh, the wonderful New Year’s post! I’ve read so many of them today already.  It really doesn’t feel quite like a new year yet, maybe it will on Monday when we get into the normal routine of things.  We had a wonderful Christmas break though. I read tons of books on my new Kindle (love [...]

Family Girls Night

by Kristi on December 23, 2009 · 0 comments


My Mom and her sisters, sister-in-law, and friends have always had fun martini nights.  The younger ‘children’ have always been sad to watch them go because we wanted to join them!! Well, we are now all old enough to do so.  Well, except for Dana.  Sadly, a few of the girl cousins were not able [...]

Busy Week! Hubby’s Big Birthday

by Kristi on October 29, 2009 · 0 comments


Last weekend we had a fabulous time as I threw a surprise birthday party for hubby! I did a pretty good job on the surprise (I am SUPER terrible at surprises…) up until the last 10 minutes where I did some uncharacteristic things. Then, when we tried to spring it on him, I should have really just [...]

Cuteness Can Not Be Denied

by Kristi on October 8, 2009 · 6 comments


Today was a most fabulous day.  It was pretty busy but filled with so many fun things, I wanted to talk about them because I didn’t want to forget. We started the morning with G sleeping in until his ‘normal’ time of about 645! The past week he’s been getting up around 6am so we [...]
